Once Upon a Type
A number of useful optimisations are enabled if we can determine when a value is accessed at most once. We extend the Hindley-Milner type system with uses, yielding a typeinferenc...

Shortcut Deforestation in Calculational Form
In functional programming, intermediate data structures are often used to “glue’) together small programs. Deforestation is a program transformation to remove these intermedia...

Pi-Calculus, Dialogue Games and PCF
Game semantics is an unusual denotational semantics in that it captures the intensional (or algorithmic) and dynamical aspects of the computation. This makes it an ideal semantica...

A Generalization of Exceptions and Control in ML-like Languages
We add functional continuations and prompts to a language with an ML-style type system. The operators signi cantly extend and simplify the control operators in SML/NJ, and can be ...

Bananas in Space: Extending Fold and Unfold to Exponential Types
Fold and unfold are general purpose functionals for processing and constructing lists. By using the categorical approach of modelling recursive datatypes as fixed points of funct...

The Functional Side of Logic Programming
In this paper we study the relationships between logic programming and functional programming, trying to answer the following basic question: to what extent is logic programming j...

How Much Non-Strictness do Lenient Programs Require?
Lenient languages, such as Id90, have been touted as among the best functional languages for massively parallel machines AHN88]. Lenient evaluation combines non-strict semantics w...
